My question was whether we wanted to keep Dojo as part of the project,
or move it GoogleCode, along with the YUI plugin. I think some of the
other questions misunderstood where we already are, in that for 2.1.x
Dojo is one of our bundled plugins, like Spring and JasperReports.
Right now the bundled plugin list for 2.1.x is

 * codebehind
 * config-browser
 * dojo
 * jasperreports
 * jfreechart
 * jsf
 * pell-multichart
 * plexus
 * spring
 * struts1
 * tiles

The underlying question is whether we have active committers who
actually *want* to maintain all of these plugins as part of the trunk.

Initially, we dragged most of these along because there were part of
WebWork and 2.0 was the backward-compatibility series. Moving forward,
we might want to be more careful about the plugins that we bundle. One
idea would be to create a Struts Plugin project somewhere, where
third-party plugins could be maintained jointly.

My suggestion would be to retain

 * codebehind
 * config-browser
 * jsf
 * struts1
 * tiles

and add (with the permission of the owners)

 * JSON Plugin
 * Table Tags
 * Smart URLs

And then encourage the remainder be adopted by an independant open
source project (while we keep a snapshot of what we have now in the
Archive).

 * dojo
 * jasperreports
 * jfreechart
 * pell-multichart
 * plexus
 * spring

Ideally, some of the other plugin projects might merge into the
independant Struts Plugin project, making it easier for people to gain
access later if the original author drifts awqay.

Thoughts?
